Xiang Wei listened to Guan Yue's straightforward words, her eyes narrowing slightly as she realized that Guan Yue was speaking the truth. This Guan Yue might just be an extremely important opponent in the Vast Empire's quest for the Child of Heaven and Earth.
She then asked, "Guan Young Master, what confidence do you have in obtaining the Child of Heaven and Earth? You should know that all three major empires are very eager to acquire it."
Guan Yue suddenly smiled, "You may not know, but I am now a junior disciple of Angered Heaven."
"Angered Heaven? The Little Ancestor Saint of Dragon Lake Academy?" Xiang Wei was surprised. It hadn't been long since they last met; how had Guan Yue become a junior disciple of Angered Heaven?
"Yes, we share the same master. Tell me, do I have the qualifications to compete for the Child of Heaven and Earth?" Guan Yue smiled broadly, wanting to see Xiang Wei's reaction. He knew that Xiang Wei could largely represent the position of the Vast Empire.
"Angered Heaven, as the Little Ancestor Saint, cannot enter worldly disputes; that's a rule you should be aware of. Moreover, we also have our own Little Ancestor Saint to rely on. However, you do have a fair chance to compete," Xiang Wei said, feeling very conflicted in her heart facing the strong-willed Guan Yue.
"I also want to compete fairly, but others won't be as easy to talk to as you are. So fighting is inevitable. When I saved you, three Eternal Realm Practitioners self-destructed and nearly took my life. The path to obtaining the Child of Heaven and Earth is uncertain," Guan Yue said deliberately, wanting Miss Xiang Wei to know that he had paid a price for her.
Xiang Wei understood the implication behind Guan Yue's words and nodded, saying, "I understand. I will do my best to help you, but if you come into conflict with our Vast Empire, I will support my empire."
Guan Yue smiled happily, "I don't expect your full support; after all, your empire also needs the Child of Heaven and Earth. I can't make it too difficult for you. As long as you don't make things hard for me."
"Considering that you lent me money in the past, I won't make things difficult for you either. Besides, you are now my lifesaver," Xiang Wei said, feeling relieved seeing that Guan Yue was reasonable.
Xiang Wei turned her head and looked at the boundless territory inside the Sky-Sealing Tower, curiously asking Guan Yue, "Guan Young Master, do you now possess two towers?"
Guan Yue quickly explained, "Right now I am merely at the Eternal Realm; I cannot fully utilize this tower yet. It can only be used to avoid risks."
Only then did Xiang Wei carefully examine Guan Yue and nodded repeatedly, "Not bad, not bad; you've truly reached the Eternal Realm. When we last met, you were just at the Peak of the Human Realm, weren't you?"
"Guan Yue" chuckled and said, "Actually, I was already a Guardian Realm Practitioner back then."
"Xiang Wei" sighed, "That's incredibly fast; it makes me feel embarrassed. I'm still a princess of a nation, and I'm only at the Pinnacle of the Marvelous Realm now. I can't compare to you. Wait, have you already reached Eternal Realm Middle Grade?"
Seeing "Xiang Wei's" expression, "Guan Yue" felt very proud. He wanted to give her an even bigger surprise, so he told her, "Actually, my Essence has already reached three hundred million drops. I can break through to Eternal Peak at any time."
"Three hundred million drops? Have you formed your Primordial Infant?" "Xiang Wei" was genuinely shocked this time.
Three hundred million drops of Essence is only two hundred million for an Eternal Realm Cultivator. What kind of monster is "Guan Yue"?
"Guan Yue" pretended to be shy and said, "I haven't formed my Primordial Infant yet. But it should be soon. I feel like I'm not far from forming it."
"Xiang Wei" nodded. She believed that with "Guan Yue's" three hundred million drops of Essence, he could form his Primordial Infant at any time. Could it be that his Little Ancestor Master helped him? Otherwise, how could he increase his realm so quickly?
"Guan Yue" continued, "I'm here to ask the Regretless Sage for the Child of Heaven and Earth. He possesses the Water Child and Fire Child."
"Xiang Wei" smiled, "It seems I really should help you. If you didn't need the Child of Heaven and Earth and didn't take this action, I would have died in a terrible way. Isn't that right?"
"Guan Yue" chuckled, "Exactly! I was just chatting casually; who knew I would run into you, Heaven's Will?"
"Xiang Wei" thought for a moment and said seriously to "Guan Yue," "I can help you, but you must promise me that if you obtain the Child of Heaven and Earth and combine them into the Mother of Heaven and Earth, we must share it and not use it against our Vast Empire."
"Guan Yue" also became serious and replied calmly, "I can only say that I will never target you. If your Vast Empire attacks our Southern Source Empire, am I supposed to help the Vast Empire? I must clarify this."
"Alright, I agree. Then I'll give you what I have here." Princess Xiangwei did not hesitate and immediately took out one Child of Heaven and handed it to "Guan Yue." Her actions were very natural. She placed her bet on "Guan Yue." Besides repaying his life-saving grace, it seemed she also wanted to win him over. She convinced herself of this.
When "Guan Yue" received the Child of Heaven and Earth, the Child of Origin within him finally stopped pulsating.
Guan Yue let out a long sigh and nodded as Xiang Wei repeatedly expressed her gratitude.
Xiang Wei smiled and said, "My life was saved by you. Isn't it worth less than a Child of Heaven and Earth?"
Xiang Wei explained this to Guan Yue, but deep down, she couldn't convince herself because she knew that the Child of Heaven and Earth was related to the fate of the empire, which was incomparable to her own life.
However, she still decided to hand it over to Guan Yue. At that moment, Xiang Wei felt as if she were cutting off a piece of her own flesh in exchange for Guan Yue's favor. She couldn't quite understand why she was doing this.
"This is the Golden Child," Xiang Wei said softly.
Only then did Guan Yue seriously examine the Child of Heaven and Earth—the Golden Child.
The Golden Child resembled a small sphere, but it was colorful, with colors evenly embedded throughout the entire surface. It was very heavy and seemed to possess a spirit. Even when held, it did not cling tightly to the skin but instead was separated by a layer of gas.
Guan Yue tried to grip it tightly, but ultimately failed.
As soon as Guan Yue exerted force, the Golden Child would slip from his grasp. It was completely beyond his control.
In the end, Guan Yue had no choice but to toss it into his Heaven and Earth Furnace. This action left Xiang Wei astonished.
Could he not nurture the Child of Heaven and Earth?
Guan Yue was very pleased with Xiang Wei's reaction, so he asked, "Miss Xiang, since you've given me the Child of Heaven and Earth, I'll give you a thousand pounds of Celestial Wine as compensation."
"Celestial Wine?" Princess Xiangwei had been away for many years, but she still knew of its great reputation.
Guan Yue said seriously to her, "Celestial Wine is not only useful for Disciples but also greatly beneficial for ordinary people. Moreover, it seems that with the power of Celestial Wine alone, an ordinary person could become a Disciple."
Guan Yue said this because he was unsure whether the Sky-Sealing Tower would also help his father and the Zhang Sisters become Disciples.
Xiang Wei countered, "Really? It helps ordinary people too?"
"Yes, my father became a Disciple of the Attainment Realm thanks to it," Guan Yue replied honestly.
A sweet smile appeared on Xiang Wei's face. "That's great! I want to give it to my mother. She's always been in poor health. If your Celestial Wine can help her recover, that would be even better than having a Child of Heaven and Earth."
Guan Yue chuckled, "Feel free to let your mom drink it. If it works, I can supply you with more."
Xiang Wei smiled brightly, "You said it; you can't go back on your word."
She looked at the Celestial Wine, her face beaming with joy.
Guan Yue did not expect that the Dragon Abyss Nine Hells Lake Water he had Ouyang Shaohua take home for testing would cause Ouyang Chongyang to tremble with excitement upon receiving it.
"Child, where did you get this divine water? Divine water indeed."
Ouyang Shaohua was puzzled. "Grandpa, how can you tell this is divine water?"
Ouyang Chongyang proudly explained, "Child, come smell it. This water has five flavors: first sweet, then bitter, followed by sour, salty, and finally spicy. That's why it's also called Five-Flavor True Water."
After hearing her grandfather's explanation, Ouyang Shaohua licked a bit and confirmed that it indeed had a mix of flavors.
With wide curious eyes, she asked, "So what is this Five-Flavor True Water used for?"
Ouyang Chongyang pointed at Ouyang Shaohua's nose and said, "Girl, tell me honestly: did that Guan Yue kid send you back here to test us?"
Ouyang Shaohua blushed; she did not expect her grandfather to be so perceptive and able to guess that. She could only nod in agreement.
Ouyang Chongyang sighed and said, "That kid Guan Yue is really lucky. No doubt about it, he even managed to get his hands on Five-Flavor True Water. However, girl, if he wants to have you, he will need to bring another hundred pounds of Five-Flavor True Water; otherwise, forget it."
Hearing her grandfather speak so bluntly about her marriage, Ouyang Shaohua's face turned crimson, mixed with a hint of excitement. When she heard her grandfather say that only a hundred pounds of true water was needed, she immediately replied, "Grandpa, you can't go back on your word. As long as Guan Yue brings you a hundred pounds of Five-Flavor True Water, you must agree, agree, agree to me—"
"Alright, you're already siding with him before you've even married? It seems a hundred pounds of Five-Flavor True Water won't be enough; no way, we need five hundred pounds!" Ouyang Chongyang was genuinely excited at the thought of Five-Flavor True Water; it was a valuable item, and naturally, he thought more would be better.
Just this small bottle could help dozens of disciples from the Ouyang Family break through their realms. Now seeing Ouyang Shaohua agree so readily made his mind race with possibilities.
That brat Guan Yue should take advantage of the situation; after all, he had nothing to lose. Why not ask for more? And seeing his granddaughter's shy demeanor only made Ouyang Chongyang want to tease her further.
It was fun to joke around with the kids; it brought him joy.
Ouyang Shaohua, being quite clever, quickly realized that she had agreed too hastily and had sparked her grandfather's greed. So this time she hesitated and said, "Grandpa, I will try to negotiate with Guan Yue, but I don't know how much he has left. If there isn't more, you have to be understanding."
Ouyang Chongyang knew in his heart how important this water was; there was no way they could get five hundred pounds all at once. So he told Ouyang Shaohua, "It can't be less than two hundred pounds anyway. You can try for more. The more we have, the better it will be for those young family members; you two can work it out."
After saying this, Ouyang Chongyang intended to take the Five-Flavor True Water to show the elders and discuss how to distribute it among the younger generation.
"Grandpa, you still haven't told me what exactly this Five-Flavor True Water is useful for? Besides, I still have ten thousand pounds of Celestial Wine here; I wonder if you'd like some," Ouyang Shaohua knew her grandfather was a big drinker who would go crazy for good wine, so she hoped to use the Celestial Wine to keep him happy.
